Fair play a brilliant and well thought of song by man united fans, it's called united calypso, think it was an old song but they have started singing it again over last few months. Oh how I wish our lot could pull a unique song off like this but instead we have to copy boring crystal palace songs! Or swans will tear you apart again, which is sometimes sung when we are drawing which is embarrasing and even worse, it is sung after we already lost to the team earlier on in the season!
Anyway take a look at this, it's not that long but was united at Southampton on Sunday
Win, draw or lose.. Jacks are on the booze

Na didn't say that, just think we should sing more unique songs, instead of singing 1 liners/ the same songs as everyone else

hymns and arias, don't think many other teams sing that
Oh, Ingerland is full of sh1t. No other premier league team will sing that. Nailed on. "Oh Lord, Michel Vorm". "Jonjo, Jonjo, Jonjo....", "Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone, Bony, Score a little goal for me" (or whatever)
Man United have always had some good unique chants and songs. Liverpool too.
We do have The Swansea City song and Hymns and Arias so we aren't doing too badly compared to other teams. But, I can see where the OP is coming from.
Genetically, paedophiles have more genes in common with crabs than they do with you and me. Now that is scientific fact. There's no real evidence for it, but it is scientific fact.

Does anyone else sing I can't help falling in love with you?
Don't make as many away trips as I used to but brought back some great memories of trips hearing that again over the last couple of weeks
I was thinking about that one too. Not many clubs sing it as far as I know. I do know that Burnley sing it though. I have heard them singing it a lot. I didn't go to Sunderland but it sounded like they sang it too?
EDIT, from wiki - The song is most closely associated as the main supporters' song of English football club Sunderland whose fans were the first to sing it. Since then other English clubs have adopted it including Swindon Town, Hull City, Huddersfield Town, Preston North End, A.F.C. Wimbledon and MK Dons and Welsh football club Swansea City A.F.C.. It is also used by Scottish clubs Airdrie United and Raith Rovers, Portland Timbers and Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer, as well as Central Coast Mariners of Hyundai A-League. The supporters of the Swedish team Djurgårdens IF also sing this song during games.

Manchester United Calypso was written in the 1950's by Edric Connor, a Trinidadian calypso artist. I ocasionally used to get tickets from a friend in the late 90's for the European matches and it used to be played over the tannoy if I remember correctly.
They do have some good chants but why do they keep singing Ooh ah Cantona ? Might as well sing about Georgie Best and Bobby Charlton.

So after all the abuse and interrogations you gave me because I went and watched a couple of Manchester United games, you did a similar thing when you were my age too? Amazing.

So glad you replied, I thought you had me on "ignore" that's why I put the post up. I was just fishing and look who I caught
Yes I went to the Monaco and Borussia Dortmund European Semi Finals. I also went to the Everton v Bayern Munich Cup Winners Cup Semi Final.
Interrogations ? I just ask you questions that you find awkward to answer because you know I am right and you are wrong.
You think you're funny posting your #united we stand thinking that us simple folk on here won't understand it and it will be way over our heads but you have such an overinflated opinion of yourself that you are bound to fail. I just like pointing out some of your many foibles.
"I go to uni in Manchester" how many times have you said that ? You go to Salford University but you feel that this is an inferior uni to both the Manchester Universities.
Salford is also a different city to Manchester but again you choose to ignore this fact. You really do have an inferiority complex about this.
You say that you are going to games (Stoke , Hull, etc) that you don't go to, yet are extremely vocal in your views on how the club should be run. I mean it's not as though you even go to matches, well the Utd cup match excluded.
Your negativity on Swansea and positivity on Man Utd would appear to know no bounds and yet you say you are a Swansea fan ?
Finally, so nice to see that you have chosen to remove your # about wanting Monk out, the Man Utd fanzine #united we stand and the # about Huw Jenkins. They make you look like a knob.
It is so funny because I believe that you are now trying to re invent yourself but alas you will have to sign up again under a pseudonym because to many on here you will always be thought of as a knob and that is no one's fault but your own.
